Modi changes twitter handle name to 'Chowkidar Narendra Modi': Amit Shah, other ministers follow
New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday changed his twitter’s profile name and added ‘Chowkidar’ as prefix to make it ‘Chowkidar Narendra Modi’ meaning ‘Watchman Narendra Modi’.
The move comes a day after the prime minister launched a campaign named ‘Main bhi Chowkidar’ (I am a watchman too) as a counter to Congress president Rahul Gandhi's repeated attacks on PM Modi and his government over the Rafale jet deal, with the slogan, "Chowkidar Chor Hai (watchman is a thief)".
BJP National President Amit Shah also followed the Prime Minister’s footsteps and changed his twitter handle to ‘Chowkidar Amit Shah’. Union Ministers Piyush Goyal, JP Nadda, Harsh Vardhan and Dharmendra Pradhan also followed their leaders and changed their respective twitter handle names.
"The one who made cleanliness a moral value... he is called Chowkidar #MainBhiChowkidar. Say with all your heart #ChowkidarPhirSe (watchman again)," Amit Shah tweeted after senior BJP leaders changed their names.

4 workers die after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad
Dhanbad (Jharkhand) (PTI): At least four workers died after being buried under coal slurry in Jharkhand's Dhanbad district on Saturday, a police official said.
The incident took place at Moonidih coal washery in the command area of Bharat Coking Coal Limited (BCCL).
"Bodies of all four workers were dug out of debris during a rescue operation," Putki police station in-charge Waqar Hussain told PTI.
The incident took place when coal slurry was being loaded into trucks by workers, during which a large chunk of slurry fell and trapped several workers underneath, officials said.
The deceased have been identified as Manik Bauri, Dinesh Bauri, Deepak Bauri, and Hemlal Gope.
Meanwhile, the family members of the deceased and local villagers placed the bodies in front of the washery gate and began a protest.
They demanded compensation, jobs for dependents and action against those responsible for the incident.
Police and administration officials are trying to pacify the protesters, an official said.
